Hi Randy_Poe, Individual.NET is the best text-only NNTP server there is.
I use Individual.NET and I wrote my own NNTP client ( X.EXE, X.TXT, X.CPP );
so my system is _Vastly_ more powerful than anyone else's.

It can't quote. That seems to be a fundamental problem.


You post via Google on FireFox on X11 on Linux on an Intel box.

Sometimes.

And sometimes via Google on FireFox via Mac OSX on
a MacBook. Sometimes that is through cable modem,
sometimes through subscription wireless networks.

And sometimes via Google on other things.

Because I plug in from different places, I choose to use a
uniform web-based interface.

So your ISP sucks big-time and/or you know squat about computers.

Or I like transportability and I don't connect via a single ISP.

T.J. is at sea, so he has to use GlobalStar ( it's like a cell phone ).

No, he's using WebTV.
